New Features
I am setting up a new directory located at v8rumble.com.
The entire point surrounding this directory is to get reviews of vendors to help serve the auto restoration community. Unfortunately, this is a very competitive market and falsifying reviews is a very real (and legally dangerous) problem. To keep falsification down as much as possible, I am going to collect as much information as I can about people who review. This includes whois lookups of thier IP using ARIN and connecting to the latest hostip.info geolocation database to gather data about the user. I will be using this data to implement some features that I hope will drastically cut down on false reviews. My Questions: I am currently having to custom write a lot of features. Unfortunately, that is a problem because I will have to redo them upon each update of the script. If these features are useful (as I think geolocation could be) to the community, can I submit them for inclusion in future versions? If I do, can I get preferential treatment on a few small features I need  ? Could you help me by going to the following link, viewing the source code, and pasting what comes before the DOCTYPE tag, and verifying if that information is fairly accurate. I know the geolocation database is fairly off, but I would like to know how close it is. http://www.v8rumble.com/?geo=true |

 By the way that also displays at the top of the page. Long time Chevy Guy here. Currently have a !968 Pick-Up with a 305 cubic inch from a 1883 Camaro Z28. Less then 10k miles Slightly pumped up. A restoration in "very slow" progress.

Greg,
Thanks, thats exactly what i needed. That data gives me a few more loopholes to try and fill in, but I'll figure them out. It only shows if you put in the geo=true, so I haven't even bothered to comment it out. I know how those "slow" restoration's go. I have a 1964 impala that I have been working on for 2 years with very little progress. Hopefully that's all about to change (Got the new engine in the other day: 383 Stroker). Thanks for the help, Cyque |

DialUp
Also you may want to check your site with FireFox. Categories need some spacing. In css find: Code:
div.categories div.col
{
float: left;
height: 70px;
text-align: left;
width: 170px;
padding-right: 3px;
}
div.categories div.last
{
float: left;
height: 70px;
text-align: left;
width: 170px;
}
Code:
div.categories div.col
{
float: left;
height: auto;
text-align: left;
width: 170px;
padding-right: 3px;
}
div.categories div.last
{
float: left;
height: auto;
text-align: left;
width: 170px;
}
'56 59 60 64 66 68 72 Chevy And those are just the Chevy's

Greg,
Thanks for the info. I have considered a forum (and will probably set one up once the site gets significant traffic). I just hate going to a site and seeing a dead forum. Thanks for pointing out the category problem. I was aware of it (found it last night), but I have just been so focused on getting this geolocation going that I haven't thought to fix it. |

Greg,
Someone might want to update the colorburst template as well, because I started with it and began hacking. I would bet that "issue" is in that template as well. Cyque |
